All you need to know about Hong Kong Disneyland Part II

The Main Street of U.S.A.

To start-off, you can hop onto the Hong Kong Disneyland Railroad or the Main Street Vehicles to go around the park. However, the queue can be quite long. Besides, it is not difficult to walk about the park by foot.

You may have a chance to meet some Disney characters and get to experience snowing (only available during Christmas month) along the way.

We chose to walk about ourselves. You will first welcomed by the Main Street of U.S.A. Plenty of shops, cute and lovely things on their window showcase for sale.

The trick is DON'T GET IN THERE!

I mean don't get in there now.

Do it later as we need to beat the rest of the "traffic"!

You will have plenty of time to shop, before and after the Disney on Stars Fireworks.

Don't worry, won't go back empty handed!

Check the performance schedule for the next Disney on Parade. Schedule your time so that you can come back for the Parade.

Any spot along the main aisle of the Main Street of U.S.A. is a good spot. Try to get as close to the side of the aisle as possible to have interaction with the dancers.

Be there 15 - 20 minutes before the show starts. Don't miss this!

Street Entertainment is everywhere around the park. Not to worry too much as you will meet them somewhere.

The Adventureland

Next, make your way to the Adventureland. It can easily take up 1.5 hours here. The main attractions there are:

Festival of The Lion King - real live performance.

If there is fast pass available for this, go for it before you move on to the others. You will have sufficient time to explore the others while waiting for the show. Be at the waiting area at least 20 - 30 minutes before the show time (unless you have fast pass). As soon as the theater door opens, head towards the seats on either the right or the left side.

The Rafts and Tarzan Treehouse

Find your way to the raft. You need to take a raft ride to get to the Tarzan Treehouse. Experience the life being Tarzan.

The Jungle Cruise

This cruise will bring you into the rainforest. Fascinating experience awaits you. Make a choice between Mandarin, Cantonese or English speaking tour guide. Don't queue on the wrong lane.

Spot the Mickey? This man is the park cleaner. As he feel bored of cleaning, he will draw a Mickey on the floor using his broom.

Finally, you can give the Tiki Likis a total miss as it is really nothing to shout about. Let's go to The Fantasyland.
